HOW OFTEN

[COLVIN]

HOW OFTEN DO YOU NEED TO CHECK HIVES? ONCE A WEEK , TWICE A MONTH, OR MONTHLY? I KNOW THIS DEPENDS ON PAST PROBLEMS AND ETC. BUT I KNOW OF A HIVE IN NORTH LA. THAT THE GUY MOVED IN FOR POLENATION AND HASN'T COME BACK TO IT IT  OVER A YEAR. I PICK UP ON THE BACK OF HIVE AND IT WEIGHED VERY HEAVY. IT HAS TWO DEEP HIVE BODIES AND A MEDIUM SUPER. I MAY BE CHECKING TOO OFTEN. I CHECK WEEKLY IF PROBLEMS AND TWICE A MONTH IF NOT.
